Today's topic: Dick thinks people shouldn’t be bagging on Barack Obama just because his preacher is a nut… I was at the coffee shop, and the guys all agree: This Rev. Wright is a fruitcake. A nutjob. His elevator don’t reach the top floor. So what’s the big deal? Back in day, everyone knew that preachers were weirdos. Why, if you didn’t want to get your hands dirty, wanting to hang around old ladies making pancake breakfastses instead, you got yourself a job as a preacher. It’s was a helluva lot easier than being a master mechanic, I’ll tell you that. The pay wasn’t so good, but you got a free house and some perch on Fridays. And you only had to work one day a week, unless you were visiting Grandma in the hospital…
